The Rapala Original Floating Minnow has stood the test of time as one of the most effective and versatile lures ever made. Trusted by anglers worldwide, this classic balsa wood jerkbait mimics the subtle movements of a wounded baitfish, triggering aggressive strikes from bass, trout, walleye, pike, and more. Whether you’re fishing it as a twitchbait on top, slow retrieving it as a shallow runner, or using it in current for drifting presentations, the Original Floater adapts to just about any fishing condition.
Each lure is hand-tuned and tank-tested to ensure perfect out-of-the-box action, while VMC black nickel hooks provide secure hooksets. From ponds to rivers to offshore waters, the Rapala Original Floater is a must-have in every tackle box.
